Lupihist 100 ml is used for treatment of Cough.
Medically reviewed by Dr. Balaji Krishnan, MBBS · Updated September 2026
Lupihist 100 ml contains Diphenhydramine (15mg) + Ammonium Chloride (150mg) + Sodium Citrate (85mg). It belongs to the Antihistamine / leukotriene antagonist, Expectorant / mucolytic / bronchodilator and Laxative class of medicines.
Treatment of Cough
Lupihist Syrup is a combination of three medicines: diphenhydramine, ammonium chloride, and sodium citrate. Diphenhydramine is an antihistamine that relieves allergy symptoms such as a runny nose, watery eyes, and sneezing. Ammonium chloride is an expectorant that helps loosen mucus (phlegm) and make it easier to remove from the airways. Sodium citrate helps thin and loosen mucus, making it easier to cough out.
Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Lupihist Syrup may be taken with or without food.
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
If you miss a dose of Lupihist Syrup, take it as soon as possible. However, if it is almost time for your next dose, skip the missed dose and go back to your regular schedule. Do not double the dose.
An overdose of this medicine can cause severe drowsiness, a fast heartbeat, confusion and, in children, agitation and fits. It can cause vomiting, severe drowsiness, a racing heart and, with codeine, dangerously slow breathing. It can cause severe loose motions, dehydration and salt imbalance. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Most side effects of Lupihist are mild and settle as the body adjusts. Reported side effects include:
Stop the medicine and seek help immediately for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Older antihistamines cause marked drowsiness — do not drive or operate machinery until you know how this affects you. Tell your doctor promptly about any change in mood, sleep, agitation or unusual thoughts while taking montelukast; this is uncommon but recognised. This relieves the symptoms of an allergy; it does not treat the cause, and it is not a treatment for an acute asthma attack. Seek emergency care for swelling of the lips, tongue or throat, or difficulty breathing. See a doctor if a cough lasts more than a week, or comes with fever, breathlessness, chest pain or blood in the sputum. Do not give cough and cold preparations to young children except on a doctor's advice. Do not combine two cough preparations — they frequently contain the same ingredients, and the doses add up. Preparations containing codeine can cause dependence and must be used only for the period your doctor specifies. Drink plenty of water while taking any laxative, particularly the fibre-based ones — without it they can make constipation worse. Do not use stimulant laxatives daily over long periods without medical advice; the bowel becomes reliant on them. See a doctor if constipation is new and persistent in an adult over forty, or comes with blood, weight loss or severe pain.
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. The sedating antihistamines are not suitable for very young children, or for people with glaucoma or an enlarged prostate, without medical advice. Codeine-containing preparations are not for children, or for anyone with breathing difficulty. Not for anyone with a suspected bowel obstruction, or with severe abdominal pain of unknown cause.
Alcohol, sleeping tablets and other sedating medicines add to the drowsiness. Tell your doctor about all cold and cough preparations — many already contain an antihistamine. Sedating ingredients add to the effect of alcohol and sleeping tablets. Decongestants such as phenylephrine and pseudoephedrine can raise blood pressure — tell your doctor if you are hypertensive. Laxatives can reduce the absorption of other medicines taken at the same time.
Store below 30°C in the original pack, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Keep out of the reach of children.
Lupihist Syrup may cause dizziness or sleepiness, so avoid driving or operating machinery until you know how it affects you. Avoid alcohol or other sedating medicines while taking Lupihist Syrup, as they may increase drowsiness. Use a proper measuring cup or spoon to measure the dose, not a household tablespoon. Dry mouth or constipation may occur; staying hydrated and maintaining fiber intake may help. Do not combine Lupihist Syrup with other cough or cold medicines containing antihistamines or sedatives unless advised by your doctor. If you have diabetes, monitor your blood glucose levels while taking Lupihist Syrup. Inform your doctor if you have a history of thyroid disease, heart disease, glaucoma, or urinary retention before using Lupihist Syrup. Avoid smoking or exposure to secondhand smoke, as it may worsen cough and throat irritation. Seek medical attention if you develop a high fever, chest pain, breathlessness, or cough up blood. Stop taking Lupihist Syrup and consult your doctor if cough lasts more than about one week, keeps recurring, or occurs with fever, rash, or persistent headache. Stop the medicine and seek urgent medical help if rash, swelling of the face, or breathing difficulty occurs.
